I have bought two of these shirts, the fabric is fair, a little on the dull, non-shiny side. However, the Gold Strips shirt can look like you have tinsel hanging on you. The fit is pretty much right on, but if you are in between a large and extra-large, go for the extra-large, the size chart to me is not exact. Overall, their worth the money if you like loud shirts. I am giving these shirts a 4-star rating when actually they deserve a three and a half. There will be some hanging threads from the buttons and some from the material, but mainly when their new the square buttons can be a total headache. If you got a hot date and you need to take your shirt off in a hurry buy a western style cowboy snap shirt, because these shirts will take half the day to unbutton.
